Objectives:The purpose of the study is to investigate the awareness and attitude toward health insurance coverage extension to scaling in dental service consumers. Methods: A self-reported questionnaire was completed by 349 adults in Jeonbuk from May 4 to 15, 2015. The questionnaire consisted of general characteristics of the subjects (7 items), Awareness of the dental health insurance system(8 items), Health insurance system coverage extension to scaling(8 items), Self-perception of oral health(7 items), Recognition toward yearly scaling benefit(10 items). Results: There were significant differences according to age in opinions on the appropriateness of the frequency of yearly scaling benefit, and the respondents who were in their 20s, who were unmarried and who brushed their teeth three times a day had significantly different opinions on the appropriateness of the fee of yearly scaling benefit. Their opinions on the expansion of scaling benefit was significantly affected by age. It implies that scaling should be added to the coverage list of the national health insurance in every age group since there is an increase in periodontal diseases with age. Concerning awareness of dental health insurance policy, the better-educated respondents took a better view of this system as they showed a more positive interest in its policies and shifts. Conclusions: It is desirable to provide more precise information as to eligible age, frequency and cost through public promotion of health coverage of scaling, and the effort to improve the health insurance coverage policy should be made in order to extend the scope of health coverage of scaling in the near future.

Methods: The study was conducted over a 1 month period from August 1, 2014, to September 1, 2014. All subjects were asked to complete a self-administered questionnaire. A total of 261 questionnaires were used in the final analysis (incorrectly completed questionnaires were excluded). The data was subsequently analyzed (including t-test, one way ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation coefficient) using SPSS version 20.0. Results: In total, 91.6% of respondents were aware of the national health insurance scaling program. Furthermore, 81.8% said that they were satisfied with national health insurance scaling. The majority of the respondents (69.0%) were also satisfied with the national health insurance scaling fee. Although 71.6% were satisfied with national health insurance scaling age, only 60.5% were satisfied with the frequency of national health insurance scaling. The disparity in the reported awareness on scaling and on national health insurance scaling was showed to be statistically significant (p<0.05). Moreover, the reported difference between satisfaction on national health insurance scaling and satisfaction with the scaling experience was also significant (p<0.05). Finally, there was a significant difference between reported awareness on scaling, awareness on national health insurance scaling, and satisfaction with national health insurance scaling (p<0.01). Conclusions:The results presented in this study reveal that awareness of scaling, awareness on national health insurance scaling and satisfaction with national health insurance scaling are important influencing factors. These results should be carefully considered in any plans to expand preventive dental healthcare clinics. In conclusion, a more systematic oral-health policy (especially regarding scaling) needs to be established to improve national oral health and quality of life.
